Perceptions of Artificial Intelligence and ChatGPT by Speech-Language Pathologists and Students.

Purpose: This project explores the perceived implications of artificial intelligence (AI) tools and generative language tools, like ChatGPT, on practice in speech-language pathology.

Method: A total of 107 clinician ( = 60) and student ( = 47) participants completed an 87-item survey that included Likert-style questions and open-ended qualitative responses. The survey explored participants' current frequency of use, experience with AI tools, ethical concerns, and concern with replacing clinicians, as well as likelihood to use in particular professional and clinical areas.
